All of us have seen the tragedy of Gaza. We've seen how Netanyahu's government has used US weapons to kill indiscriminately and create famine. I will not participate in this carnage. When Congress votes on sending more offensive weapons to Israel today, I will vote no. 1/

BREAKING: Texas DPS is reinstating the lone officer it once planned to fire for the botched Uvalde police response. The Uvalde DA asked that Ranger Chris Kindell be returned, citing conclusions of a grand jury investigation that resulted in no charges against DPS troopers.

Tonight at @PlanetFitness in Salem, a hateful man decided to call one of my fellow gym goers a racial slur aimed at dehumanizing Latinos. Fortunately, I was in the locker room and heard the racial harassment, and was able to both step in and alert PF staff about this man’s racist

Hace 5 años un tirador asesino a 23 personas e hirió a 22 más en El Paso. Que nunca se nos olvide.

Over the last three and a half years, the Biden-Harris administration has consistently leveraged our diplomatic power to free Americans who were wrongfully detained abroad. I'm glad that Paul Whelan, Evan Gershkovich, Alsu Kumasheva + Vladimir Kara-Murza are finally coming home.

Take some time to read @alexazura @TexasMonthly piece. It will hit deep. Listen to Amor Eterno. Then think about #ElPaso and #Uvalde . Hug your families. And if you are in or around #txlege do your job, bc Texans deserve more than this constant heartache. #EndGunViolence

In the aftermath of tragedy, Juan Gabriel's "Amor Eterno" consoled mourners in El Paso & Uvalde. This year, it earned a prestigious place in the National Recording Registry. How "Amor Eterno" eases us into grief & how it's become part of our audio heritage
